Wolfram Hart LA Branch, Los Angeles, California

Lindsey McDonald and Lilah Morgan stand with Mr. Hamilton, a representative of the Senior Partners. They face a new business partner.
Alexandra Webb, incarnation of the demon lord Naraku, stands in her business holding a bodyguard off the ground one handed. The cro-magnon-like bruiser of a bodyguard stands 6-foot-7 and weights around 350 pound. Alexandra holds him with the ease of lifting Styrofoam, not straining in the slightest.
Around the Ice Queen and the Lawyers are the remains of other bodyguards. The remains are red snow, bloody fragments and broken pieces, shattered like porcelain. An eerie icy fog fills the room, streaming from the frozen remnants.
Alexandra's grabbing hand glows a faint blue and before the Lawyer's eyes the massive man's body withers. As the flesh collapses into mummified tissue, frost and ice forms on the dying flesh. As the process completes, she lets the frozen corpse fall. It shatters like red glass as it hits the floor.
"Now that the preliminaries are over." says Alexandra"It's time to begin business."

Actual Hellmouth, Sunnydale, California
-
Deep underground, beneath the rubble of Sunnydale High School and the Master's Lair, A cavern that rumbles and glows brightly with an evil red aura. The broken rock glows as if highly radioactive and slowly reaching meltdown. The stone and dirt seems to pulsate faster and faster with dark energy, like the beat of a demon's heart.
The Seal of the Turok-han is already gone, the prehistoric vamps below destroyed by the fiery rocks and mystical energies. There own demonic energies consumed by the Mouth of Hell. Arcs of energy crawl across surfaces and leap from wall to wall. The Dragon Lines (Leylines), the lines of force that control the flows of magic, slowly feed more and more energy into convergence.
The air of the chamber is filled with patterns of light and energy slowly collapsing upon themselves.

Watcher's Council HQ, London, England.
-
A man dressed in black with shoulder-length white hair walks towards the old style building.
In front of the building is the security guard Peter. The gray haired bearded man is dressed in a dark gray suit covered by a raincoat and a wide rim hat. He carries an umbrella with a hidden sword in the handle and a Beretta under his coat. His often reminds people of Sean Connery and is always pleasant. He has guarded Watcher's HQ for 20 years and has stopped several threats with his blessed silver rounds and magically enhanced sword blade. He and the other six guards secretly patrol the building in shifts.
"Who are you, mate" he asks the white-haired stranger, shifting secretly to pull his gun.
"Kaimetsumaru."
Noticing the man's slit peach eyes and feeling his danger sense screaming like a football game, Peter pulls his handgun. Kaimetsumaru is faster, grabbing the man by the wrist. With a sickening wet crack, the ulna and radius bones become open fractures. The bones of forearm pierce the skin, spraying blood and causing Peter to cry in agony. A brutal backhand silences the veteran with another loud crack. Kaimetsumaru leaves the guard in his blood and walks towards the building.
As he reaches the heavy wood doors, the incarnation simply rips them from the hinges and sends them over his shoulders. The doors hit a car across the street, nearly tearing it in half. The man doesn't make a sound as he enters.
Seconds later, the building is filled with sounds of gunfire, screams, and the sound of snapping bone.

Sunnydale, California, USAHours later
-
Kendra, the Vampire Slayer, slowly rises from a pool of crimson. The Slayer thought herself dead, and her heart had stopped twice, but the pain shows the nightmare is reality. Her Watcher, the man who was a father to her, lies dead in a pool of his own blood.
She drags herself towards a nearby closed gas station. She uses her remaining Slayer to break the cheap lock and walk in trailing blood. She finds what she's looking for under the cashier's desk. A red-and-white First Aid Kit that she grabs with determination.
"Koharu." says Kendra as she places the bandages over her torn shoulder"You''ll pay for this"
-
Abandoned Warehouses, Boston, Mas., USA
-
A young dark haired woman is fighting a group of demons in a warehouse. The demons are short, very muscular humanoids with heavy dark green scales, bloody red eyes, and several ridges of small horns. They resemble extreme devolved vampires dressed in black leather pants and jackets. The young woman is dressed in a tight outfit with a leather jacket.
"You won't escape us, street bitch" says the Leader with the longest horns"Kakistos is a fool for not learning of you."
"Bring it on, asshole." says the woman getting into a stance.
"We will. Unlike Vamps we like weapons." says the Leader as he pulls a Large handgun. The other demons pull sharpened link chains, pipes wrapped in razor wire, metal bats, and various knives. One even has a large machete out an army surplus store."There won't be enough of you left to feed a leech."
"I don't think so."
The woman and the demons turn to see the newcomer. He looks like a strangely attractive biker with long white hair done in a ponytail. The senses of the woman and the demons go crazy. They can feel an immense amount of power coming from the stranger.
"Hope you don't mind if I cut in, love." says the man with a grin"I have something special for these morons."
"Hah" says the Leader, a little nervous"Me and my gang would have left within a week, if we didn't detect the girl! We couldn't have her stopping our collection."
"Collection of human body parts, you mean." says the man as he pulls off his shades. Smoke gray eyes change In front the demons own. Pupil vanish and gray becomes flames reflected against polished dark silver. The man's bone white hair seems to flow in a wind that wraps around him.
The Leader pulls his gun and fires all 10 hollow point rounds at the supernatural biker. The bullets are stopped by a fiery red barrier that quickly shatters the rounds into tiny globules of molten metal. The man raises his hand and the gun turns red hot and shatters into fiery fragments along with the Leader's hand.
The one with the machete attacks, proving it's lack of intelligence. The steel blade burns away against the barrier like a blasted by plasma lances. The strange man delivers a palm strike to the demons chest. The demon is sent flying to the ground a few meters away and then seconds later, the chest cavity bursts like a fiery fragments.
"Enough tricks" says the man as his barrier disperses"Let's try the old fashion way."
The six of the remaining seven demons, those alive other than the Leader, attack together with sloppy teamwork.
The first's knife-wielding arm is grabbed and receives a elbow to the throat, a fist to the face, and a blow to the bridge of it's nose. The bone fragments pierce it's brain killing it.
The second attacks with razor-wired pipe, but a sweep kick knocks it off it's feet. The first's stiletto knife then penetrates it's skull.
The third and fourth attack together, both wielding steel bats corked with heavy metal. The Man simply flips over them and then jumps backward between them, deliver two backhanded punches to the back of the skulls. There is the disgusting sound of breaking bone, as the man seems to defy physics and flip back to his feet.
The fifth demon wields a strange weapon composed of two titanium crowbars connected by a heavy chain with sharpened links. The demon wields the weapon like an Hong Kong movie star, using them like nunchoku. What's funny is he makes Bruce Lee noises with it's gravely deep voice.
"There is always some martial arts nut." says the Man ducking the strikes with ease"Don't get me wrong I love watching Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, and the Others." he continues ducking the now more energetic strikes. "but I hate these punks who think watching a few movies makes them experts." Within a lightning fast move, the man yanks the makeshift nunchoku out of the demon's hands.
The man then begins his martial arts routine and the demon proves to have slower reflexes. Tears appear in the leather, red-pink blood sprays when each cut is made, and there is the occasional sound of breaking bone. The demon backup farther and farther, then suddenly stops an inch from the thing's face.
"Don't you agree" he says tossing the nunchoku over the demon's head. The demon doesn't have time to react as the woman wraps the chain around it's neck. With a hard jerk and twist, the inhuman spine is broken and the sharpened rings of metal tear into the scaly flesh.
The sixth is frozen in fear. There is an ammonia-like smell from the shaking demon peeing himself. His only weapons are a military survival knife and several Molotov Cocktails tied to his thick leather belt. The man looks at the bottles of gasoline and then the girl. He raises his eyebrows and she smiles. With a faint shift in his demonic eyes, the oily cloths in the necks of the bottles ignite. The demon screams like a little "girl" before the bottles explode turning the demon into a living candle. The creature runs around for a couple minutes before collapsing into a pile of burning animal fat.
The Leader still clutching it's burnt stump take off running. It runs away from the warehouse along the shoreline.
The Man's hair explodes like an aura around him, his eyes completely changing. Steams of fluidic fire flow from his body into a small white sphere In front of him. As the streams of burning energy stop, the sphere explodes forwards like bullet leaving a trail of distortion and torn air. The sphere shoots straight at the fleeing demon like homing missile. There is an earth-shaking explosion and all that remains is a shower of crimson mist and charred bone fragments.
"Way cool." says the woman"Name's Faith, firebug, what's yours"
"Tenma."

Sunnydale, California, USA. Same time
-
Shizuka, Naraku's elite manipulator stands surrounded by seven corpses. The corpses are all clad in black hooded robes with silver masks. The only things separated them are there wands, sticks of various lengths and materials that lay next to there former masters. Shizuka arrived to find six of the seven dark wizards dead and one injured. The little group had been attacked by vamps last night and were unable to escape or attack thanks to the effects of "mystical EMP".
With a little pressure, she learned they were a bunch of racist wizards, called Deatheaters after there master's obsession with snakes. There Leader being a Dark Wizard name Voldermort. Shizuka notes the parallel between Voldermort and Adolf Hitler. Voldermort hates muggles (non-magical) and people with muggle blood, but his father was a muggle. Adolf Hitler hated Jewish people, but was the son of a Jewish banker. Deatheaters or Nazis, it's sill militant racism.
Shizuka cuts her palm open and drips her blood in a wide circle. As the circle is completed, it flares with a unholy red light. Unlike the Deatheaters, her magic born of many demon bloods is unaffected by the pulse's aftereffects. The body flow red and on each arm a glowing symbol can be seen, a red spider over a black skull with a snake in the mouth. The visible skin shifts to gray scales and the faces beneath the masks shift and change into something not quite human. They rise like zombies, no longer feeling Master's warnings, but there new Mistress' unholy commands.
"Murder. Torture. In the end, you were nothing but weak humans. Driven by fear, pain, and hatred. Now you feel no fear, no pain, and no hatred. You will simply Obey"

Another demension, a couple of hours later (Earth)
-
The Debara Nexus is a place between world. A Nexus is a bridge realm existing between various Earth and Hell dimensions. A place where time flow differently and civilizations rise and fall within a year. The Debara Nexus was originally founded 2500 years ago by demons fleeing the Ancient China. The strongest species were a race of insect-based demons known as the Debara. Over time, other demon species from China, Japan, and Asia arrived. The reptilian Hysaura from the Chinese sub-continent, Youkai (magical creatures) from Japan, and many others. Many humans and half-breeds were taken to Debara Nexus as slaves. Slaves for labor, for sport, and for breeding!
Time passes differently inside the Nexus' realm, for every day that passes in the Earth realm, one year passes in Debara. So 2500 Earth years equates to over 913 000 years. The two reason the demons haven't conquered other realms are:
1. Demons have an aversion of technology. Demons and Humans are natural enemies, since the beginning They lost their purchase on the Earth reality and the way was made of for mortal animals, for man. Man created technology and demons see technology as man's symbol of human power. Also, most demons have animal and/or magical connections so they rely on there natural abilities and ancient mystical forces, which don't mix well with modern science. An example from '33 is a demon summoned threw a power generator!
2. Demons (and humans) are born fighters. Arcane demons thirst for power. Animal-based demons follow there base instincts to mate and hunt. The ancient demons killed other demons and animals, simply to gain the abilities and traits of those they consumed. There are also racial hatred of different species, of humans, and of half breeds. The Demons of Debara Nexus have gone threw hundreds of thousands of battles and wars.
One day ago Earth time, One Year ago Debara time, the island/continent was ruled by three groups. The insect demons and older species of Chinese demons ruled by Debara Hyuuga, the Japanese Youkai and Hanyou (half-demons) ruled by Emperor Daikuromaru, and the other demons ruled by Daemon Thoteci. Now, the three demon lords are dead and a new demon sits on the Throne of Debara
Daishiromaru, Second Male Incarnation of the New Naraku, sits on the throne surrounded by a collection of mages, warriors, and slaves. He's dressed in ancient Oriental armor with a huge cape and the handle of a massive sword held in his right hand. The armor is ivory white with polished gold details. The cape is the color of blood detailed with gold silk. The sword resembles the blade of Berserk's Guts, except instead of rough iron, the massive blade is made of a black metal that seems to absorb all life and light. In his left hand are four glowing red spheres, each pulsating in sync with each other. When he traced Youki of demons to a gateway, he never expected to find so much power
There are 700 slaves, all female (I don't like Yaoi), ranging from the human ages of 30 to 15. They all resemble attractive athletic females dressed in Chinese silks or polished leather. The most human only have oddly colored hair, small fangs, and pointed ears. Others have slight ridges, unique skin coloring, or metamas on there foreheads in the case of the Chinese demons. The strangest, most inhuman demons resemble the works of HR Giger (think Sil and Eve from "Species" movies)
There are 1400 mages of various demon species. There dressed in either pleated robes or shamanistic bones and leather. Half of them carry elaborate mystical staffs and some of them hold leather bound books or ancient scrolls. There are several with amulets and several more with satchels filled with other magical items. The demon species range from oddly colored humans to part-animal creatures to necrotic walking corpses to completely featureless lacking even eyes or mouths. There are even two non-humanoids, one a giant red-black cockroach with long golden hair and a oily black mollusk with blood red eyes, twelve long tentacles and a leech-like mouth.
There are 2800 warriors, ranging from near human to part-animal, dressed in ancient armor. The armors range from Eastern Fantasy to Warring States Period of China (476 BC - 221 BC) to the Warring States Period of Japan (1467-1615)(a/n: The Japanese WS was named after the Chinese). They are armed in weapons ranging from Naginata to Dao to Tai Chi swords to Katana to Kunai. There is an immense arsenal of Asian weapons, some of them folded steel, some of them forged with magic.
Outside the Chamber is a massive dark Arena are 9100 non-human demons. The demons range from demonic dragons to horned beasts to giant felines and canines. The dragons range from 50 foot Red Westerns to serpentine Eastern Dragons to massive multi-headed fantasy dragons. They are lead by one super-massive dragon.
(1)It's a massive Oriental dragon standing 120 meters (394 feet) long with iron hard white scales, dark blue hair, and glowing eyes. It also has the five-clawed paws of Imperial Chinese Dragon. It's aura of power seems to warp the air around it and enable it's massive form float in the air, It doesn't possess the flame blasts of western mythology, but possesses a missile-like energy blast that can shatter mountains.
The horned beasts, which resemble giant Oni- Japanese horned demons, stand 2 to 20 meters (6'7 to 65'7) with iron-hard muscles, leathery skin, small horns, and long wild hair. They also have mouths full of sharp fangs and sharp claws on there hands and feet. Most are clad in tiger skins or leather armor.
The Oni King stands 50 meters (164 feet) tall with massive muscles, blood red skin, and long white hair. It also has sharp fangs with tusks, long horns, black lips, and fiery eyes. It's clad in loincloth of tiger skin, one large enough it must have taken thousands of tiger demons to make. It looks and is strong enough to crush tanks and aircraft like soft clay. It's thick armor-like hide and it's thick iron-like muscles make it virtually indestructible. The Oni King also has the ability to produce a firestorm from it's mouth that can cremate entire armies.
The canines resemble giant dogs, wolves, and multi-tailed foxes with white, black, or crimson fur. There leader is a ghostly white dog so immense, it's average fang is 4 meters long! The immense dog has red eyes, sharp short claws, and a tail that moves like cloud despite it's immense size. It also produces a corrosive Shouki, concentrated in it's claws and saliva. It's so power that spit wad would melt a platoon, bones included.
The felines resemble giant tigers and lions, with there Leader resembling a saber-tooth black liger (lion-tiger mix). It's two saber-like fangs are 8 meters long and it has nine fire-tipped giant tails. The flames that burn on the tips of it's tails and it's feet are special. The great cat cab choose it there harmless ice flame to hot enough to melt stone and metal. It seems to charge threw the sky, it's fiery paws walking on air.
Outside the Arena, is the rest of the army.
In the red sky above is ghostly symbol of giant spider. It pulsates with the four hearts in Daishiromaru's hand.

Sunnydale, California, USA. Same time

Buffy suddenly gets a very bad feeling. Not someone walking over your grave, but some giant Oni dancing on the grave, digging up her corpse and going necrophilia, then playing Canadian hockey with the granite headstone. The score: 6-to-1.
She pauses then turns to watch the others.
Xander feels very strange. He can feel the spider shaped burn on his back pulsate and burn, as if sensing something powerful.
Willow is training with Dawn. Dawn is showing Willow how to make exploding notes and summoning scrolls. The notes are pieces of paper with chakra spells written on the. There designed to explode after a period of time or by trigger. The scrolls have symbols written on them, each symbol summons a different weapon. You can pack a Slayer's lifetime supply of stakes in a roll the size of a newspaper!
Sam, Daniel, Giles, and Jenny are working on calculations. There trying to predict future problems with the Hellmouth. Currently, they are on the second bottle of Motrin™ and there eighth pot of coffee
Jack, Xander, and Teal'c are talking about various topics. Xander is talking about Sunnyhell's crap and what he saw in Giles' books. Jack is talking about his time in the service and on alien planets (the less classified ones). Teal'c is talking about battles with and against Apophis and his master Bra'tac.
Harmony is blessing silver and holy water, after Cordelia mentioned Harmony's bottle of spring water melting a vamp like acid.
Cordelia is avoiding the silver, while she uses a electronics kit to build a weapon. It looks like a pile of machine bits and electronics to most people. Sam was tempted to take a peak, but the Peebos are temperamental. There are few birdies in Sunnydale.
Joyce and Kaneda are practicing there sword kata in the backyard. Kaneda talks about the various anime characters he accidently brought to life Halloween night. Joyce is talking about Suzuka's adventures and her friends on the Outlaw Star.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione are talking about the Hellmouth history, SG-1 learning about the Wizard world, Kaneda's anime, and the Legal problems. They also wonder if Kaneda will accept the teaching job at Hogwarts.
-
On a nearby Rooftop.
-
Shizuka sits on the roof of a neighbor's building watching Joyce and Kaneda in the yard and the others in the house. She's invisible except for faint spacial distortion broken up by the unseen wind. She hides her sound, her scent, and her youki from the preternatural senses of the people at the Summers residence and those in Sunnydale who retained the ability from All Hallow's Eve. If you could see her behind illusions and spiritual warping, you would see a sinister smirk.
Shizuka also feels the pulses of energy threw her spider mark. Unlike Xander who can't recognize them thanks to memory blocks and doesn't enjoy them, she knows what they are and rejoices in them. She knows they mean a new era of power, a new Dynasty in which she will be a Lady and Naraku an Emperor.
Fools. Only the one who bears the Master's Face would stand a chance. she thinks, keeping unnaturally silent. Just one of my attacks would reduce that house to scattered rubble and splinters, but my Master loves his games. Like a Spider he wants to draw them into his web of deceit before he drains the life from them.
She waits for her own pawns to arrive. The demon spirits she infused into those corpses will give them far greater power. More dark magic than there frail human forms could ever contain. She wonders how the young wizards will react to a enemy that will not stop unless completely destroyed.
Suddenly, she senses another surge of dark power several blocks away.
With a faint ripple, Shizuka vanishes with the wind.

The Home of David Anderson Jr. (2)
-
The home of the Andersen is quiet today. The father is working at a local business supply store. The mother is working as a secretary at Museum. The son, with school closed for an undetermined time, decided to go to his uncle's museum, then a friends for video games. He would normally avoid museums, but last nights weirdness left him with a lot of questions. The only person remaining is a small terrier, the family dog Sonic, who David was suppose to feed.
On the floor of a child's bedroom is a inverted pyramid-shaped puzzle made of golden pieces. Next to it rests a weird tri-color wig, a child-size leather outfit, and a deck of cards in a holster. There's also an odd machine meant to be mounted on the arm. The Item glows a gold flame, while emitting mots of light.
Suddenly, the room turns pitch dark as the puzzle's intense golden glow increases. It is like the Item is drawing in all light, all warmth, all life from the room to feed it's power. Phantasmic white blobs streak from the Item's eye-like center into the all-consuming darkness.
Seconds later, several sets of glowing eyes open, shining in the artificial night.
Outside the house, the building changes. The colors are drained leaving shades of grey and air becomes a sterile cold like a frozen tomb. The garden and lawn withers away leaving nothing but dust and parched earth. Sonic tries to escape the effect, but soon collapses into dust like vampire staked. What's the strangest is the metal objects and glass windows become silvery and reflective like mirrors, but don't reflex any living creature
-
The Hidden Castle. Hours later
-
Naraku power continues to grow as the power of the Hellmouth is channeled and focused by the Shikon. As the Hellmouth continues to bleed its energies, Naraku's Youryouku (demon powers) increases over and over. The air is thick with Naraku's shouki. The thick purple gases are so toxic every living thing for miles underground is dead. The dirt is sickly gray as even soil bacteria dies. Many weaker demon species and all vampires have been wiped out, reduced to dust. A strange ice cold wind blow across and around the building, filling the castle with the chill of the grave.
The New Naraku is different from the original who was born from a multitude of demons focused around a theif's heart. He possesses the knowledge and skill of Alexander LaVelle Harris. Xander as a outcast, spent a lot of time with tv shows and comics. Within those Naraku began to form new plans.
In the center of the complex, beyond the serpentine hallways, is Naraku in his true form. The chamber maybe an a immense hemisphere with the radius of 100 meters, but the form it holds is barely contained. The demon lord is a immense mass of pulsating purple flesh out of a thousand Lovecraft nightmares with a thousand tentacles and a thousand eyes. Parts of it's body resemble the legs of an immense spider, while others resemble centipedes, and others resemble bony claws. The pulsating living tissue glows with an Jyaki (evil aura) as the Shouli oozes from it's body. At the center of the mass is the upper body of Naraku with long arms and eight spider-like legs coming out of it's back, eyes glowing and the pulsating dark Shikon on his chest. On his back the spider-like burn, symbol of Onigumo and his human heart is gone.
Around him are the Saimyoushou-Insects of Hell. Naraku's demonic wasps are 10 times larger than nature's largest, the Japanese Hornets with blood red human eyes. These insectile creatures attack and sacrifice themselves for there master. They spy on Naraku's enemies and act as poisonous shields from attacks. They now await there Master to rise in his new form.
The chamber also contains the other six clay pots positioned around him at 12, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 O Clock (every 60 degrees). Each rests in a honeycomb-like cell of harden purple resin and semi-gelatinous slime. Creating an incarnation is easy enough, all a powerful demon like Naraku has to do is select the parts and allow them to grow in a pot of blood until they have there own forms. The clay is simply a vessel to hold the parts together, until the demon has gained a form of it's own. The first six Incarnations have great power, but other six are far superior and take longer to grow. They also wait for there master's rebirth.

Summer's Household, Sunnydale, California

"Avada Kedavra"
The young Gryffindors barely manage to avoid the terrifying green blasts. Kaneda, Tenten, and Joyce have no problem with there reflexes. Willow, Cordelia, Harmony, and Giles are far enough away to avoid the shots. SG-1 with there military training and after avoiding Jaffa and Staff weapons, know when to take cover. Buffy by reflex uses her phasing ability, which means the green magical shot only causes intense pain, instead of instant death. Xander was on the couch and was hit directly, but to the shock of the wizards, good and bad, h's not even hurting. Xander's flesh just ripples slightly, then solidifies again.
Harry turns to see seven black-robed Deatheaters wands ready. They are at the door and the now broken front window.
"Die Filth" yells the Leader with an insane amount of hate in his voice. "Avada Ked.."
The Scoobies, Gryffindors, and SG-1 respond with there own attacks.
SG-1 takes cover behind the upturned couch. Teal'c's staff blast sends the Leader flying, as two other Deatheater are introduced to Muggle firearms. Jack wishes he hadn't left his P90 on the kitchen table. What's strange is the blood from the bullet hits is darker and colder than normal.
Harry and his friends, the obvious targets, are shielded by Kaneda, Joyce, and Tenten. Kaneda's Otaku knowledge combined with Jubei's training knows how to protect. Joyce's motherly instincts with Suzaku's assassination history enable her to act without thought. Tenten, Genin of Konohakagure (village hidden in leaves), has done many D and C class missions, and has been trained in body guarding. Dawn retained everything that Tenten was. She throws two chakra-boosted kunai (heavy daggers) into the shoulders of the closest dark wizard. She also uses a third t snap the wand before it hits the ground.
Cordelia grabs her new blaster, while her Peebos provide cover fire. She wishes the power cell had more than six shots on stun. She also helps and protects Harmony, who left her gun and gospel bullets at home.
Buffy recovered from the black magic and seriously pissed off, dives into the floor using the powers which earned Nancy the name Miss Deep. She appears next to one Deatheater and delivers a brutal kick, one that dents the silver mask. The dark wizard's head makes a tear in the lawn. She then does a flip to break the dropped wand.
Willow throws a couple of her new exploding notes from a nearby desk. The paper wraps tightly, as if vacuum sealed, around the extended wands and hands of two racist wizards. The paper then explodes reducing the wand arms to cauterized stumps.
There is a pause, then to everyone's shocked eyes, the Deatheater get back up.
Harry is shocked that the Deatheaters don't cry in pain or shock, instead they rise from the earth. They have burns, bullet wounds, stab wounds, broken bones, and massive bruising, but they moves as if unhurt. There dark blood soaks there black robes, but they still rise.
Suddenly, Xander throws an arm forward which releases a pointed tentacle of dark red muscle. The tentacle pierces one of the Deatheaters and explodes out the back in a crimson spray. Buffy, her original side, is shocked at Xander killing a human, tho she can understand the military's "shoot first" attitude. Then she notices the scales and ridges on the thing's face, now that the mask is gone. The thing twitches then dissolves like a vampire, but instead of dust or ash it becomes crimson liquid and mist.
"Not human! Waste Them"
Two more staff blasts hit the Leader, one to the chest and one to the head. Jack is glad he let Teal'c carry his staff in instead of a assault rifle. The military grade bullets have little effect, except reducing mobility in the limbs. It dissolves before it hits the ground, hitting with splash.
Willow forms a newspaper into a sword and attacks the two wandless undead wizards. She uses her kendo skills to decapitate the first one, then ducks and rolls to avoid a strike from the second. She then decapitates the second . The wizards collapse leaving behind soaked dark robes.
Kaneda's vacuum slash and Joyce's air slash techniques form an "X" that reduces another possessed wizard to pieces. The pieces burst into red mist.
Dawn throws several more Kunai which pierce the sixth Deatheater, the same one she nailed in the shoulders. This time the wizard collapses to the ground and dissolves, leaving the tattered robe and a dark pool.
The last is trapped in a web of thin wires thanks to Giles. It's wand lies in tiny pierces. With a slight pull, the last Deatheater is reduced to tiny pieces. The remains become a crimson rain that stains the ground.
The group looks at the stained mess and Ron loses his lunch. The floor and lawn are soaked, and red drips from broken glass and wood.
"I'm not cleaning this mess." says Joyce.
"So is You-Know-Who experimenting, or is this Hellmouth weirdness" asks Ron, as he tries to hide his weakness.

The Home of David Anderson Jr.
-
Shizuka stands before the altered home. She feels the destruction of her demon-possessed corpses, but doesn't care. She's more focused with the distorted energy and space she senses within the gray walls and mirror windows.
"Round 2" she says before yelling"BLADE OF OBLIVION"
Shizuka slashes her arm producing a violet blade of energy. The thin crescent blade strikes the supernatural mirror the windows have become, and vanishes into the silver surface. There is a pause, the a glowing crack appears. There is a blinding flash.

End of Chapter 05

Note:
(1)Size of monsters? Inuyasha/Japanese monsters are just as big!
Kaiju (Godzilla and Co) range from 50 meters to 100 meters tall.
Inuyasha's 6-foot Tessaiga was made from part of his father's fang and he got it inside his father's mountain-size corpse.
(2)This uses elements from YGO manga, which is alot more brutal than anime.
The monsters aren't as cute fantasy, but tortured human souls.
